Why do you get so offended when someone tells you that your HD isn't worth much? Most employers find a credit average (haha) to indicate a 'results-driven individual.' Anyway what do you mean when you say that it isn't easy to get high marks when the expectation is that you are 'stupid?' I...

I'm just saying that your comment about how people's marks can go down in later years doesn't really prove anything (this is indepdent of whatever point you're trying to make). Because like I said, I'm sure that we can agree that regardless of how much effort you put in, it is extremely...

It's pretty hard to maintain the 95+ average you obtain in your first year throughout the later years of a course. Yes the example is a bit extreme (and yes people do obtain those sorts of averages in first year) but it just goes to show that your vague comment doesn't really 'prove' anything. I...

Not sure about other unis but at melbourne there is definitely no subject in electrical where everyone has 'failed first go.' A few years ago someone went through the entire course with a lowest subject score of 75 and that was a one off (ie. never failed a subject in electrical). Of course...

Do you honestly think they would care? I mean if someone gave me you 100k simply because you're male would you consider that to be sexist and reject the offer? :D

Re: Who got a shit uai? Cmon share your pain I didn't say that the HSC didn't cater for his abilities. I think it's quite clear that what I was doing was comparing two different things, and stating that one is no less pathetic than the other. He may 'go off the boil' at uni if he keeps up...

Re: Who got a shit uai? Cmon share your pain So what if he complains? This is a public forum and he can do whatever he wants as long as it is not out of line. Someone complaining about how the HSC is unfair since it apparently doesn't cater for everyone's ability hence leading them to miss...

Well I'd say that it's probably best to attend during the on-campus enrolment day (I'm not sure if it's still run the same way as it did when I was there a few years ago). The other days when they introduce you to various subjects, learning techniques etc. appear to be useful at the time but...

Re: Could he be really over his EX, if relationship had to end because of DISTANCE I was just joking my previous reply, please don't take it to heart. IMO it's quite sad if someone actually takes the advice in L & R seriously. Only you know all of the details of the situation so just do...

Re: Could he be really over his EX, if relationship had to end because of DISTANCE You have every reason to be worried and feel insecure. He is obviously not over his ex and is just using you as his 'play thing' until he and the ex get back together. Your relationship will soon crumble if you...

Damn, a lot of people (especially some of those from non-immigrant background families) are 'bach chee.' Many such people simply have no grasp of the context of the situation of a significant number of asian kids and their parents. It's about the effort and not the score, that's just a...

At Melbourne scaling isn't something that happens, in general. What that means is that scaling doesn't take place unless the lecturer decides to implement it. I've heard from other people that scaling does take place in some maths subjects, and it's quite noticeable in the middle range (ie. raw...

What's with the the incessant suggestions for a complete revamp of the current side simply for the introduction of some youngsters? 5-0 >> 3-0 and you certainly won't get 5-0 if you do introduce a whole nunch of n00bs at the same time - you'll certainly get 3-2 though. The team is going great at...

What kind of a selfish idiot would ask the sort of successful person in your description to move overseas?

As someone mentioned before, there is a huge financial burden associated with raising a child. So from a logical point of view, this more than enough justifies the 'opt out' of the father if they do not wish to raise the child. There's nothing wrong with looking at it this way as long as it does...

I'm not sure if Melbourne uses that rubbish ENTER plus uni results format for selection but I'm pretty sure your university WAM will be used for transfer purposes. If no one can give you a definitive answer here then you should check on the uni's website.

This is just about the most sensible and correct statement that I have ever seen on the internet.

No I wasn't.

Listen to the lady boy, having more than once been with a guy whilst dating another one, she knows what she's talking about when she calls you stupid.

z0mG but marks do not matter because employers actually consider the various factors affecting academic performance and value other trivial acitivities you've participated in much more so than your aptitude for the related courses.[/lie] Seriously don't be so cruel drew. You really should let...
